We recently had two of our new engineers carry out a trailer maintenance training course with Towing Solutions, feedback from my engineers was it was very professional, full of great information, well set up and good spectrum of course subject delivered by a great team :)
I will most certainly be sending my guys there for additional training in the future, a big thank you from Pete :)
An EXCELLENT 2 Day Trailer Servicing and Maintenance Course which was extremely beneficial. The tutor was exceptionally knowledgeable and professional and talked us through every aspect of trailer servicing and maintenance. We came away much more confident and even better equipped going forwards with our new trailer business!
After speaking to our four delegates that attended the one-day trailer course, everyone was really happy with the course content. Trainer was excellent and very knowledgeable. All staff I have been in contact with have been super helpful and friendly. I wouldn’t hesitate to book in future.
I recently did the 1-day Trailer Servicing course with Dave, and it was honestly great. He ran the course really well, there was a nice mix of classroom and hands-on work, which kept it interesting and easy to follow.
I felt like the course was really well put together. Everything made sense, and I didn’t feel like anything was missing or needed changing, it just worked.
Whilst I was there, I had a good chat with Dave and came away with some really cool ideas I’m excited to try out on my own trailer. Overall, a really worthwhile day!
Definitely recommend the course. I had a good understanding of trailers but this really helped me cement my knowledge and understand in more depthAfter speaking to our four delegates that attended the one day trailer course, everyone was really happy with the course content.
